Episode 3 - TD.Moyo

Olly Double interviews Kent Drama graduate TD.Moyo – Tendai to her friends – about her work as a theatre director and playwright working at such prestigious venues as the Royal Court, the Barbican and the Almeida, where she is currently a Resident Director. She talks about the particular challenges facing black students, the importance of networking, and dealing with people saying ‘no’ when you’re trying to establish yourself as an artist. She also comes out with the BEST one-liners, telling us that, ‘The plan is as an activist is to take over’, declaring, ‘I’m not leaving this space until I am artistic director’, and advising us that, ‘You have to enter the space and just do it.’ Her ambition is, if not to change the world, at least to change South London.
